DEVILMENT - Laudanum Skull lyrics

The shine is sipped Then exquisitely drained I find the grip in my gut Is religiously pained Borne for a spiritual gain I embrace this catharsis The taste of this forbidden fruit One taste, I'm in thrall to the darkness And yes, I guess I'm a willing recruit The shine is sipped Soporific and caned I dream the seizing of the keys To the astral plane Deep in this decadent sleep The shine is sipped Then exquisitely drained I find the grip in my gut Is religiously pained Borne for a spiritual gain I embrace this catharsis The taste of this forbidden fruit One taste, I'm in thrall to the darkness And yes, I guess I'm too eager to loot This eve is thrilled by toasts And the stars intoxicate me Here in sweet arms My heart is swimming with the sallow moon Hearing the psalms Her secret altar My pen is quilled with hosts And they foster flotsam poetry Wing me the past The now and then weds with the all too soon I mean it to last My soul is burning I bid thee night night Opiate daze Takes me until daybreak It sees me right right Set in my ways Utopian worlds await my coming Living in the red in a black And white sea Never on the level of illuminata Dancing with the dead in the cemetery I'm running with the devil with the Most stigmata I embrace this catharsis The taste of this forbidden fruit One taste, I'm in thrall to the darkness And yes, I guess I'm a willing recruit My marriage to the baggage of life and d**h's annulled Here in sweet arms My heart is swimming with the sallow moon Hearing the psalms Her secret altar A greater plan has hatched in my Laudanum skull Drinking the balm She's the painted, tainted hand of doom Sinking to calm My manic psalters
